Searching for neutrino emission from hard X-ray sources with IceCube

The IceCube neutrino observatory, a cubic-kilometer particle detector at the South Pole, first announced the discovery of an astrophysical flux of high-energy neutrinos in the TeV-PeV range in 2013, followed in 2017 by the detection of a high-energy neutrino event in temporal and directional correla...
